You guys wanted some better pics so I tool a few at my parents' this weekend. I have to roll the rear fenders some more because I can smell burnt rubber when I'm driving with a full load after hitting a few bumps in a row. Haha. Also, tore another CV boot, so I ordered some Dorman silicone boots that I'm going to put on.

Anyways, enjoy the pictures.



















New HU. Still needs some adjustment on the bezel. I love the unit, its so nice.





Thanks for looking.

Sucks to roll hard. You'll get used to it.

@ CV Boot. So far my OE ones are holding up great.

Thanks man.

I looked at them and it looks like I didn't roll far enough out on the fenders.

And yeah, the axles situation is starting to get real old. I'm just going to get a new drover side axle and put on the silicone boot right away. Contemplating doing it to the passenger side right away or waiting for it to blow too.

wheel specs.

[gilber33]

17x8.5 and 17x9.5

You have to fix the boot mainly to keep the wheels clean.

I'll never understand it dude....sorry. Geo Trackers back in the early 90's/late 80's had roller skate wheels on them and it looked terrible back then too. Just don't get why you wouldn't just get a set of wheels that just barely tuck under the fenders so that you can actually drop it like it's hot.



Guess it's just me dude...sorry...just like a different look is all.

And that's OK. There's a reason you never saw a poll at the top of one of my threads regarding the wheels.

That too. And so I can drive the car without it either being noisy as shit or vibrating. Silicone boots and a new axle.

Craig, the car scene has moved on from skinny/tucked, its now stretch and poke and go WIDE sir

I gotta hand it to you for that one..Don't ask for peoples approval, just do it and like it if that's your thing.

You should have created a poll asking if you should create a poll about your wheels...

Definitely...but when you post pics of them on an open forum you have to be able to expect and handle the negative feedback as well...seeing as how not everyone is going to share the same opinions.

Oh I know what is considered in fashion for now...just simply stating that it can be done correctly...ie:

For sure.
I am just glad I didn't have to see another "hey, if I do this will all of you approve?" threads first...

When it comes to style Craig I am with you on the look..not a fan of poking wheels. Didn't' like it in the early 90s and I still don't
But I just have to accept some are going to roll with what they like, so I try not to get too opinionated...

Now 24"s on a lifted donk..I will offer my opinion all day on that shit..

Hell ya brutha...everytime I see one I can't stop thinking of all those stupid Geo Trackers that people did with wheels that were way too wide...made them look like roller skates...lol

Oh well....different strokes I guess.

[exexpat]

I think the 1990s look was more about 13" Daytons. Not the same in my book. This is the Germany 15 years ago look, totally different and since I lived there 15 years ago, I can dig it.

[ersh]

not really my thing as well...the whole poked look... still prefer it to be just right...flush with a lil tuck. BUT, to each his own and i am digging the look on ur car. i just wouldn't do it to mine haha.
